Inside the bamboo house, the sound of whips lashing reached the ears of the group of people outside. No one dared to go up and stop them. Er Mao was frantic; if the beating continued, the young master would die.
"You bastard, what else can you do besides causing trouble! You never learn your lesson, I should have strangled you back then."
Ou Yan stubbornly straightened his back, letting him vent his anger. He had experienced countless beatings like this since he was a child, and he was already numb to it.
"I did nothing wrong. If this makes you feel better, then go for it. I'm tough."
"evil creature."
Just as the whip was about to strike, it was grabbed tightly by the person who rushed over. When Ou Yan saw that it was his second father, he felt sad and bitter. If only this person were his biological father.
"Ah Sen, if you hit the child again, he'll die. You should listen to his explanation before you take action. Ou Yan is only doing this to please you."
Olsen threw down the whip in his hand. "I want to hear his explanation! Keeping male concubines is one thing, but this time he actually dared to provoke Wu Laohu."
Li Jianyi wanted to help Ou Yan, but he saw that Ou Yan's black shirt was torn and bloodstains were seeping out. He was still as ruthless as ever.
Ou Yan was clever and quick-witted from a young age, and learned things very quickly. He liked this child very much and was very protective of Ou Yan. He didn't know why Ou Sen and Yu Wande were abusing this child.
He met Olsen and Yu Wand in prison back then, and the three of them planned the arson escape together. Of course, without the help of that former commissioner, they wouldn't have gotten out so easily.
After the three were released from prison, they could have gone their separate ways. A week later, Ou Sen and Yu Wande brought a child from somewhere. Ou Sen claimed that the child was his illegitimate son with Hong Kong star Yu Min, and that Yu Wande was the child's cousin.
He didn't think much of it, after all, it was their family matter. They were just fellow prisoners who had escaped together. All three of them were grown men and had never raised a child before.
Perhaps because he was hungry, the child started crying incessantly in the middle of the night, and Yu Wande got up and slapped him.
"Cry, cry, cry! If you keep crying, I'll kill you. So what if you're born into a rich family? You still don't have that kind of life."
Li Jianyi looked at Ou Sen not far away and saw that he had no intention of intervening and was letting Yu Wande yell at him. What kind of father and uncle would treat their child like this, especially an infant in swaddling clothes?
Afraid of frightening the child, Li Jianyi quickly picked up the baby from the bed and comforted him. Then he found a soup spoon and fed him water, but it seemed that the baby was hungry and the water was not enough to satisfy him.
Li Jianyi cooked rice porridge and fed it to the child. Ou Sen and Yu Wande ignored him, as the two of them had never intended for the child to live after stealing him.
Perhaps the child was lucky, as he survived alongside the three fugitives and began a new life after arriving in northern Myanmar.
Yu Wande would take his anger out on the child whenever he was slightly unhappy. At first, Ou Yan would cry and complain to Ou Sen. Later, Ou Sen also started hitting and abusing him, and gradually Ou Yan stopped crying.
Li Jianyi had also suspected that the child was not Ou Sen's, but he didn't know who Ou Yan's biological parents were. No matter how Ou Sen treated him, Ou Yan always respected his father.
Ou Yan stood up and looked at Ou Sen coldly, offering no explanation. It had always been this way since he was a child.
Li Jianyi beckoned Er Mao over, "You tell me, why exactly did Young Master Ou Yan take action against those people?"
Ou Yan glanced at Er Mao, his face full of warning. Er Mao felt sorry for Ou Yan and felt uncomfortable if he didn't speak up.
“Master, this time it’s not Young Master Ou’s fault. It’s because Wu Laohu insulted you and Madam that Young Master Ou’s actions were out of anger.”
Olsen was surprised by this answer. Since childhood, Ou Yan had lived among men and Olsen had seen how much he longed for maternal love.
